Cranberry Sauce Two Ways


Traditional Cranberry Sauce

Ingredients

2/3 cup sugar
1 cup water
1 bag of fresh cranberries (usually 10 or 12 oz.)
1/2 orange (for zest and juice)

Directions
  1. Wash the cranberries and sort out any bad ones. This is super easy to do, just put them into a container of water and just don't use the ones that do not float.
  2. Mix the water and sugar together in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Add the cranberries and orange zest and boil gently for about 10 minutes.
  3. Remove from the heat and squeeze in 1/2 of the orange. Refrigerate until ready to serve. Sauce stays good for up to four days.
